Owner Experience Review
Owners of the 65 MotoryachtbyPACIFIC MARINERconsistently use the boat for coastal and long-range cruising—East Coast runs, Bahamas trips, and even Great Loop itineraries feature prominently. Several report extended liveaboard schedules, including full-time residence, while others lean on the generous saloon and aft deck for weekend entertaining. The design is intended for owner-operation at this size, and owners do undertake passagemaking without a full-time crew.
On the water, the Bill Garden–derived hull feels purposeful and seaworthy, with testers noting it’s a lot of boat that’s engineered well and laid out for comfort. Typical reported cruise is in the low 20s knots (about 21–23) with top-end in the high 20s on trial boats; the pilothouse stays notably quiet with clear sightlines. A three-stateroom layout with an amidships master (king island berth), a forward VIP, and a crew/guest cabin with single berths supports family cruising, while generator capacity and sensible systems layout back up extended time aboard. Serviceability is a strong suit: access from the aft deck leads to a spacious engine room with standing headroom, and common MTU 60‑series, Caterpillar 3406, or Detroit 60‑series power has been described by owners as relatively trouble‑free. Older examples often benefit from electronics modernization and interior refreshes, but overall performance and build quality earn praise—some even call it a “miniature Westport.”
Pros and Cons
- Versatile for coastal and long‑range cruising, with genuine owner‑operator capability.
- Seaworthy, quiet ride with good pilothouse visibility and a low‑20‑knot cruising pace.
- Liveable three‑stateroom layout, big saloon/aft deck, and excellent engine‑room access for maintenance.
- Older boats may require helm electronics upgrades and some interior updates.
- Operating and service costs align with large twin‑diesel yachts and reward hands‑on care.
- Third cabin’s single berths limit flexibility for couples.
